Ageratum Mexicanum - Ageratum Pink are a dwarf that grows to 1 foot and has pink flowers that grow in clusters. I read the Genus name comes from the Greek "a" meaning not and "geras" meaning old age because the flowers hold their color for a long time. Another great quality is that they are fragrant. They can take a bit of drought and not be affected. The clusters will fill the plant and grow above the foliage, and it will bloom from Spring through Fall. Great for containers, borders, edges, or spots that need low growing color. This variety comes in blue, pink or white. Makes great cut flowers as well.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
